pete williams is still with us. and there seems to be a key period in his life, six months when he went back to russia. his father says that he went to visit him, but i guess the key question is, was it at that point that he somehow was radicalized? >> well, that's a -- that's one question. and the second question is, where did these -- where did this expertise really you have to say with explosives come from. i mean, these two -- if you think about it, it's -- yes, the design of the devices was sort of basically out of the, you know, anarchist cookbook or right off the internet of how to make a bomb in a pressure cooker. it's unfortunately very sadly on the internet. but it's still difficult to make it work. and you add to that the fact that they managed to set off two bombs with some apparently sophistication in how they were detonated, whether they were by a timer or remote control. that certainly you assume is not something that you could do if you were just trying to build a bomb for the very first time. in mos

i think there is going to be a civil court process as pete william has talked about. he's not been mirandaized yet but he's going to be. they'll use the public safety exception for as long as necessary. there will be the usual chatter about that. frankly, that's white noise. he will be prosecuted in a civilian court and the long process of building the case, judicial case through the forensics and investigative work and the chain of evidence is going to be incredibly solid because of what we've seen so far over the past four days of the investigation. >> can i press you on one point there? >> yes. >> the reason we can't take a deep breath, let me explain why this is the question at the moment. the things we have confirmed about the suspect are the suspect's name. we know quite a bit about the suspect thanks to a social media presence and the reporting that's gone on. we know the suspect is in custody. we do not know the suspect's health at the moment. what we do know are reports that the suspect has not been mirandized. the public safety exception is pursuant to a sup

so for more on what is next i'm joined by nbc justice correspondent pete williams. good morning to you after a very long day. and bravo for your work done yesterday. where do authorities go from here? >> well the justice department says it intends to put tsarnaev on trial in a regular civilian court with all the rules that would apply in any criminal trial. and that is renewing the debate about how to try terrorists on american soil. as soon as he is physically ready dzhokhar tsarnaev will be subjected to questioning by federal authorities. but in the beginning, he will not be given the usual miranda warning about the right to remain silent. instead, the government will invoke a rule that allows questioning a suspect without giving advice of rights. >> there is a public safety exemption in cases of national security, and central charges involving acts of terrorism, and so government has that opportunity right now. >> the government invoked that same rule in the case of the so-called underwear bomber. as in his case, it allows questioning to learn of any potential pl
